By design, it is not a true bypass; but merely takes the EQ circuitry out of the audio path. More on this is discussed later in the manual.

CHAPTER 3: A BIT OF HISTORY In the beginning... Most early recording consoles had very primitive equalization capabilities, often consisting of only two knobs. These consisted of either a simple ‘tone control’ type shelving equalizer, or a ‘low’ and ‘hi’ control knob with a fi xed frequency center. - Page 9 ENGLISH WARRANTY NOW LET’S GET STARTED TECHNICAL SPECS What followed next was the innovation that brought the use of EQ into the A BIT OF HISTORY mainstream, known as active equalization. ‘Active equalization’ allowed an EQ WAXING PHILOSOPHICAL to be patched into a mixing desk for the fi rst time without the fear of ‘insertion HOOKUP DIAGRAMS loss’, added noise, or loss of fi...

TIPS ON USING YOUR EQP-WA The EQP-WA is a program equalizer by design, which means, though quite capable on individual instruments, it especially shines on complex, full bandwidth material; i.e. complete mixes or instrument groups. It is especially good with providing a fi...
- Page 11 When in bypass mode, the audio signal is still routed through the Cinemag input transformer, dual vacuum tube stage line amplifi er, and Cinemag output transformer; and the EQP-WA will output at approximately unity gain relative to the input level (or within close margin, due to small variations in output gain from individual vacuum tubes).

Recording interface In this example, a microphone is feeding into a preampfl ier, which feeds in to the EQP-WA via a balanced XLR patch cable, which feeds in the LINE LEVEL input of your recording interface/recorder.

This is useful for using the EQP-WA as an “analog plug-in” or insert for mix-down. The recording device is feeding the EQP-WA with a balanced 1/4” cable via a line...
